The John Deere Model M tractor was a two-cylinder row-crop tractor produced by John Deere from 1947 to 1952. My friend Tim’s brother, at 15 years old, bought one used in 1963 from Heard and Vernon Farm Equipment Company in Cumming, Georgia. The M had been in development for several years during World War II prior to its introduction in 1947. The M replaced the H, L, and LA models. Three additional variants; the MT tricycle, MC crawler model, and MI industrial model were also built. The M was the first tractor to be produced at Deere’s new Dubuque, Iowa factory.
